Sometimes the raid level in the output of `mdadm -D /dev/mdX` is
misleading when the array is in inactive state. Here is a testcase for
introduction.
1\ creating a raid1 device with two disks. Specify a different hostname
rather than the real one for later verfication.
node1:~ # mdadm --create /dev/md0 --homehost TESTARRAY -o -l 1 -n 2 /dev/sdb
/dev/sdc
2\ remove one of the devices and reboot
3\ show the detail of raid1 device
node1:~ # mdadm -D /dev/md127
/dev/md127:
Version : 1.2
Raid Level : raid0
Total Devices : 1
Persistence : Superblock is persistent
State : inactive
Working Devices : 1
You can see that the "Raid Level" in /dev/md127 is raid0 now.
After step 2\ is done, the degraded raid1 device is recognized
as a "foreign" array in 64-md-raid-assembly.rules. And thus the
timer to activate the raid1 device is not triggered. The array
level returned from GET_ARRAY_INFO ioctl is 0. And the string
shown for "Raid Level" is
str = map_num(pers, array.level);
And the definition of pers is
mapping_t pers[] = {
{ "linear", LEVEL_LINEAR},
{ "raid0", 0},
{ "0", 0}
...
So the misleading "raid0" is shown in this testcase.

Specify nodes number when updating cluster nodes
Now it allows updating cluster nodes without specify --nodes. It can write superblock
with zero nodes. It can break the current cluster. Add this check to avoid this problem.
v2: It needs check c.update first to avoid NULL pointer reference
v3: Wol points the typo error

mdadm/Grow: prevent md's fd from being occupied during delayed time
If we start reshaping on md which shares sub-devices with another
resyncing md, it may be forced to wait for others to complete. mdadm
occupies the md's fd during this time, which causes the md can not be
stopped and the filesystem can not be mounted on the md. We can close
md's fd earlier to solve this problem.
Reproducible Steps:
1. create two partitions on sda, sdb, sdc, sdd
2. create raid1 with sda1, sdb1
mdadm -C /dev/md1 --assume-clean -l1 -n2 /dev/sda1 /dev/sdb1
3. create raid5 with sda2, sdb2, sdc2
mdadm -C /dev/md2 --assume-clean -l5 -n3 /dev/sda2 /dev/sdb2 /dev/sdc2
4. start resync at md1
echo repair > /sys/block/md1/md/sync_action
5. reshape raid5 to raid6
mdadm -a /dev/md2 /dev/sdd2
mdadm --grow /dev/md2 -n4 -l6 --backup-file=/root/md2-backup
Now mdadm is occupying the fd of md2, causing md2 unable to be stopped
6.Try to stop md2, an error message shows
mdadm -S /dev/md2
mdadm: Cannot get exclusive access to /dev/md3:Perhaps a running process,
mounted filesystem or active volume group?
